Bronze Ancient Keys
Full summary; Hundreds of years ago in the time of the ninjas, a mysterious man showed up in the middle of the fourth shinobi world war and had sealed hundreds of ninja into bronze keys that were lost after the war. But now, in a time of magic, they appear again, and with a purpose.

Lucy's P.O.V

It was a normal day here in Fiore, more specifically in the Fairy Tail Guild. Natsu and Gray were fighting, Erza was trying to stop them as Elfman was shouting things out about being a man.

It's amazing really, I've only been here a few months and I already feel so close to all of them like I've known them for years, it's crazy really.

"Erza fight me! We still haven't finished our battle from before!" Natsu yelled as he pointed an accusing finger at Erza for dramatic effect.

Erza and Natsu had both just returned from being held in prison for the lullaby incident.

I let out a helpless sigh as I knew where this was going and instead went to the mission board where Levy was also looking through the board for a mission, I assume which is for her and her team, Shadow Gear.

"Hey Lucy, looking for a solo mission?" Levy asked me.

"Yeah, it couldn't hurt right?" I said smiling.

"Aren't you going to watch Natsu and Erza's fight? I mean they are your teammates after all." Levy asked me ask she raised a blue eyebrow in curiosity before once again looking to the board.

"Nah, I have a pretty good idea about how it's going to end." I said as we both laughed.

"That's Erza for ya. She's, as Elfman would say, the Man." And at that we laughed harder.

Back to looking at the mission board Levy gasped happily and giggled as she tore off a mission request.

"This looks interesting." She said as she showed me the request.

I frowned a little, it didn't look like much to me. Obviously sensing my confusion she pointed to the award and I gasped. Not only was there a high jewl reward, there was a gate key as part of the reward.

"Oh my gosh! Does it say what kind of gate key it is?" I asked with stars in my eyes.

I could hardly keep in my giddiness as Levy read through the paper. After a couple of seconds her smile turned into a confused look making me all the more curious.

"It says it's an Ancient Key." I raised an eyebrow at what she said. 'What?'

"What's an ancient key?" I asked after a second only to give me a weird look.

"Don't ask me, you're the Celestial Wizard here."

"But I've never heard of an Ancient Key before." I said, completely focused on the piece of parchment in Levy's hands.

"How's about this? I'll take the mission and collect the key and you do the research on it and I'll give you the key when we get back?" Levy proposed as she stuck out a hand for me to shake.

"Really Levy? You mean it!?"

"Of course Lucy! I don't really have a use for a gate key like you do anyway." I couldn't help but squeal and completely bypass the hand shake and hug her. Levy laughed as she hugged me back.

"We don't know what's going on here but count us in!" I heard Droy say as he and Jet joined in the hug making it a group hug, causing Levy and I to laugh.

We both separated when Natsu had crash landed on the table that was right behind us. Not a second later did everyone in the guild erupt in laughter, Shadow Gear and myself included.
